En nuestro club de lectura de la biblioteca de Carboneras, acabamos de leer esta comiquísima sátira, Pantaleón y las visitadoras, de Mario Vargas Llosa.
Pero el evento literario más importante en nuestro pueblo ha sido la aparición de este simpatiquísimo libro, Con el mar de fondo, 26 relatos e ilustraciones por vecinos y visitantes de Carboneras. Modestia aparte, las obritas, dibujos y fotografías son muy lindas, y la portada, por el conocido fotógrafo almeriense Carlos Pérez Siquier, es una preciosura. No pierdas el relato de su servidor, "Carta de Fuentehundida" por Baltasar Lotroyo.
Y otro evento más: El miércoles pasado, 25 adultos e igual número de niños carboneros que participamos como "Personas Libro" presentamos nuestros textos aprendidos en la nueva biblioteca de Torre Pacheco, en Murcia.

- Geoffrey Fox
- Geoffrey Fox's short story collection Welcome to My Contri (1988, enlarged e-book 2010) was described by The New York Times Book Review as a "short and impressive work" in which "Mr. Fox [...] has created a memorable set of players who, while not natural antagonists (they often share the same dreams and goals), are still somehow bent on confrontation. Watching their sometimes vicious, often darkly humorous interactions leaves us thoroughly wrung out and aware that we are in the presence of a formidable new writer". Novels: A Gift for the Sultan (2010), Rabble! (2022) His articles, op-eds and book reviews have appeared in The Nation, The New York Times, the Village Voice and other publications. Since 2008, Fox has been living with his partner, architect Susana Torre, on the edge of the Mediterranean in the village of Carboneras in Andalusia, Spain, where his short stories (in Spanish) under the pen name "Baltasar Lotroyo" ("el otro yo" = alter ego in Spanish) have appeared in anthologies and online publications.
